If there’s anything the world collectively needed right now, it’s a new Eclipse record. Granted, we’re not in the complete state of disarray that we were in last year. Live music is a thing again, which is more than could be said a mere six months ago. That said, as long as we’re in this bizarre Groundhog Day scenario saddled between normalcy and “the new norm”, I’ll take all the uplifting, empowering, melodic rock n’ roll I can get. Wired not only showcases Eclipse’s high energy bravado, but pushes it to the point of overload.
In my interview with Eclipse frontman Erik Mårtensson, he described Wired as “up tempo” and having “a little bit more of a punk attitude”. Now by punk, he’s not referring to the typical studs and leather, mohawked clichés us Americans associate with the genre, but rather the carefree, party ’til you pass out mentality of fellow Scandi punks The Hellacopters and Turbonegro.

"Not one single Ammunition song could ever fit an Eclipse album."
Norwegian/Swedish melodic hard rockers Ammunition put out their second and also eponymous album on January 26th and already on the following day Metal Covenant got to sit down with accomplished songwriter and guitar player Erik Mårtensson to listen to what he had to say about the band's latest stuff.
Tobbe: Åge Sten Nilsen's Ammunition is today simply Ammunition and who's idea was it to get rid of that initial epithet and why did it happen?
Erik: The reason is that Åge doesn't want a solo career; he wants a rock band. Åge Sten is big in Norway, but outside of Norway he is more or less completely unknown, you know.
Tobbe: If you look at the songwriting. To what extent do you personally take part in writing the songs?
Erik: I write a lot of it. But so does Åge. I would say that we write about 50 % each. He writes more of the lyrics, since it's him singing. It's his words that are going to come forward, you know. He's got his sense of humor in the lyrics. It's ingenious, I like it, I think it's good. But it's not so stressed here in Ammunition in comparison to Wig Wam, which re
